I'd call it a Jones plug.

Re: Painton connector plug and socket wired together
Similar plugs/sockets were used on 1950s/1960s mobile radios on the 'umbilical' between the boot-mounted radio and the dash-mount control-box.
From memory they were usually made by McMurdo. |

Re: Painton connector plug and socket wired together
Even though they are labelled Painton, they look very like Plessey 'Heavy Duty Multicon' connectors. I found them in an ITT Electronic Services catalogue called "The Electronics Book" probably from the 1970s.
The 8 pole plug has a Plessey part number 72/10/0801/03 (old part no. 310568) The top entry cover is 72/10/0802/03 (old part no. 311753) The end entry cover is 72/10/0803/03 (old part no. 311746) The 8 pole socket has a Plessey part number 72/10/0851/03 (old part no. 310569) The top entry cover is 72/10/0852/03 (old part no. 311795) The end entry cover is 72/10/0853/03 (old part no. 311788) Some seem to be available here: http://www.sinequanon.co.uk/product_...roducts_id=630 http://www.sinequanon.co.uk/product_...roducts_id=633 Ron Last edited by ronbryan; 25th Nov 2014 at 11:49 pm. |
